St. Francis International School is a well-established, one-form entry institution offering a unique blend of American and International curricula. As a proud member of Rome's premier RISA International school network, we provide high-quality education at an exceptionally affordable cost.
Our mission is to deliver a well-rounded and challenging education rooted in the values of tolerance, solidarity, trust, and integrity. We strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where every child is empowered to reach their full potential—academically, physically, emotionally, and socially.
Within our close-knit community, students are encouraged to develop responsibility, compassion, awareness, and a sense of pride. Emphasizing the importance of politeness, courtesy, and exemplary behavior, we cultivate an atmosphere where respect and kindness are central to every interaction.

Nestling at the foot of the Aventine, the most exclusive of Rome’s seven hills, and a stone’s throw from the city’s great imperial sites, our international non-denominational high school for Boarding and Day students has built its academic program and reputation on the classical heritage of our host country, Italy, and the rigor of two prestigious educational models: the American, independent college-preparatory curriculum, and the IB Diploma. A distinctive faculty of accomplished scholars bring the highest level of instruction to a diverse student cohort. Our emphasis on the School's core values of care, independence, scholarship, integrity, and creativity guides St. Stephen's students to become architects of their futures, and engaged, motivated, global citizens.

Kendale is a small but dynamic school which provides a safe, supportive and caring environment where a dedicated staff guides children towards the acquisition of knowledge, skills and confidence, the necessary foundations for a life-long love of learning.
